It has long tendrils who support the bloom’s weight and some pretty lung leaves who can reach as to 3 meters.
But the fun part is the fact that it changes color from the tip to the center of the petals, who are pronounced and flexed, making it one sumptuous plant.
The usual color for a 10$ flower like this is from deep red, orange and yellow to yellow-green.

The flower is also poisonous and if you ingest any part of it you may get sick because it contains colchicine.
Touching the stems and the leaves can cause skin irritation but this didn’t stop the traditional medicine from Africa and India to use it in cures.
